William Comstock, the oldest convict In
the Auburn Penitentiary. died recently.
He was sentenced in Madison county in
1868 to imprisonment for life. He was
then 81 years old. Comstock killed and
butchered his father and mother. cut Out
their hearts and ate them like o cannibal.
His crime has always been regarded as one
OF the most remarkable on record, prob
ably having 3 parallel only in that OF Mrs
Druse. The officials say that Comstock
never made any trouble in the prison. He
had been employed in the tailor shop, and
looked after the socks worn by the con-
victs. He had been . confirmed opium
eater. however, and his spine troubled him
so much that he had been in the hospital
for some time.

THE VETO AND PUBLIC OPINION

When Mr.. Cleveland vetoed the De-
pendent Pension bill he showed that he
is a good deal of a man and very little
of the mere politician. On that subject,
at least, it required some courage to
stand by his convictions. Both the Sen.
ate and the House seem to have shirked
the matter. They deliberately threw
the responsibility of facing the big
soldier vote of the country on the Presi-
dent. He has, however, met the issue
squarely, given sound reasons for his
%disapproval, and will be supported by
the common sense Of the American PEG.
pie, which is q good thing for a President
or any other official to have behind him.
There are many soldiers who ought to
have a pension, and everything else, for
that matter, which the Government can
give them, as a token of gratitude.
They are the men who escaped, but only
barely escaped, the fate of their com
rades who are under the sod. They
contracted diseases which linger in their
systems and unfit them for the heavy
strain Of business life. They lost arms
or legs, or they still carry bullets, which
proves that they were not in the rear
when the fight was going on. Nothing
is too good for these brave fellows, and
yet they are the last to ask for a pension.
They are proud of their very misfor'
tunes, while the country is proud Of
their daring.
There are others, tens of thousands,
whose health was not injured, who are
still able bodied and in the prime and
vigor Of their manhood, and who would
hesitate to put a cash value On the ser
vice they have rendered. They enlisted
not for money but for country. They
were not hirelings, they were patriots
They are engaged in lucrative pursuits
are doing we'll and would feel a certain
loss Of self-respect at the offer of a few
dollars a month for deeds and snffering'
which cannot be appraised at q money
value.
Then again there are those who de
serve the least, but who are ready to de
mand the most. They are not modest
about their claims, but are hungry t.
get at the cash of the people, horde
who went into the army only when thu
price of enlistment had reached tn,
highest figure, who got out of danger a
the earliest opportunity, who were nj
more patriots than a papier.mache man
ikin is a man.
Well, the Presidant, while expressing
unstinted gratitude to the army of tn
Union, simply says that the Dependen
Pension bill does not, in his opinion
meet the case on it's merits or in the bes
way. Mr.. Cleveland is quite right.

The Obser vance of the Day at

WASHINGTON, Feb. 22.-The Presi-

city as a holiday. All the executive
departments and many business
houses we're closed. Both Houses Of
Congress, however, were in session.
Several street parades took place dur
ing the day. The first one was COM
posed of veterans of the old volunteer
fire departments of this city and Balti-
more, who subsequently participated
in a celebration in Alexandria. The
National Rifles, the Washington
Light Infantry corps, the Capital City
Guards, and the High School Cadets

to provide for holding a future meet
ing of the Commission at Washing
| ton, and the selection at random by
an officer of the Mint Bureau of the
coins to be tested, and payment of a

The recent press dispatches reporting
Asiatic Cholera at Detroit, Mich, calls
to mind the epidemic of malignant dys.

sold one hundred and eight fifty.cent
bottles of Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera
and Diarrhea Remedy, during the cpl
demic, and states that to the best of his
knowledge, it did not fail in a single in
stance. The local paper published there,
said the same, and spoke of it in the
highest terms. The Remedy was used
in fully 800 cases, and not to fail in a
a single instance is certainly rcmarka.
